And to elaborate on those 5 wins, those were actually wins against the bottom 4, since Stanford was in fact the #6 team in the league. Which means they also had 5 wins against the top 5 teams in their league.

EDIT: Compare that to Syracuse, who many people felt should have been in with their 23-9 record including 10-6 in the Big East. Of their 10 conference wins, only 2 of those came against the top 5 teams in the league. The other 8 were against the bottom 9 teams in the league, and they also LOST to 3 of those bottom 9 teams.
